“THE ROOST”: Experience a Renowned Tilghman Island Cottage!

This delightful, 1950 cottage-style home has been upgraded throughout. Cozy and light, with many windows and skylights, the property is located on approximately quarter acre just over the bridge at the entrance bridge to Tilghman Island on the Eastern Shore of Maryland. The home is minutes to St. Michaels and is close to several marinas, art centers, library, bookstore, museum, a couple of markets, shops, and the post office.

Casual and comfortable, with water views of Knapps Narrows from the boatyard across the street, and in a quiet neighborhood at the entrance to the island, this recently renovated, pristine cottage is an excellent retirement, investment, or second home. It is perfect for a family, retreat, or vacation home, or just right for a weekend sanctuary or pied-a-terre.

Renovated throughout, this three bedroom, two full bath cottage entices you with a delightful front sitting room. The living room includes built-in bookshelves, a TV/DVD with a fully installed surround sound system, limestone wood burning stove, and air conditioning. The fully equipped kitchen also provides generous cabinetry and table space. The laundry area with washer and dryer is in a separate rear room.

Roses border the front of the home and the backyard lawn is shaded by a huge maple tree, just waiting for the family picnic table and for summer lunches. There is a large one-car garage and private and protected gravel drive. This home has a history of generating rental income. It is available with or without furnishings (separately listed).
